Chapter 181 An Ally Request
The downtown area was an hour and a half drive from Cloud Peak Mountain.
Maggie drove there and arrived at Cloud Peak Mountain Resort at six o'clock in the evening.
Coincidentally, she could still see the sunset.
Standing on Cloud Peak Mountain to watch the sunset was an incredible experience.
After a few glances, Maggie returned to her work, and Jass sent her the information about that designer.
Angela Torres, a thirty-five-year-old female who graduated from Polytechnic University, had been in the jewelry design industry for eight years.
Initially, Angela was Selena's strongest competitor.
There were also photos in the profile.
Maggie was wondering where to find Angela in such a large resort when she looked up and saw a familiar figure walking towards her from the direction of the hotel elevator.
The woman was wearing white sportswear and a baseball cap, exuding the elegance and charm of an independent woman throughout her body.
Maggie hurried over and smiled. "Ms. Torres, hello, I am Maggie Miller, the chief designer of AL Jewelry under Visionary Futures Group. I came here specifically for you."
Angela glanced at Maggie, who suddenly appeared, and asked in a calm tone, "Who did you say you are? A designer of AL Jewelry?"
Maggie smiled confidently. "I am the chief designer of AL Jewelry, Maggie."
Angela, surprised and puzzled, looked directly at Maggie. "Isn't Selena the chief designer of AL Jewelry? Where is Selena?"
"Selena resigned just a week ago," Maggie explained. I am now the chief designer of AL Jewelry. Ms. Torres, I heard that you are skilled in the traditional hairpin technique of the former royal. Now we have a client who specifically requests this traditional craftsmanship, so I came to consult with you."
Angela, upon hearing that Selena had resigned, became curious and excited. "Your name is Maggie, right? Tell me, why did Selena resign? Come, let's find another place to talk."
Angela and Selena used to be competitors. When Angela learned that Maggie had replaced her competitor's position, she became interested.
Angela led Maggie to the lounge specially prepared for guests at the resort.
Various drinks were available there.
Maggie ordered a glass of juice, and Angela ordered a cup of coffee.
Maggie briefly mentioned Selena's resignation, but she did not mention Selena's plagiarism.
Now that she had taken Selena's position, there was no need to tarnish Selena's reputation, and Angela might not even believe it.
If she said Selena had plagiarized, it would make her look bad.
Her purpose here was to seek advice on the hairpin technique from Angela, not to discredit others.
Angela remained skeptical. "Ms. Miller, I know Selena so well. She is not someone who gives up easily. It's hard to believe she resigned just because she couldn't satisfy a client. You are not telling the whole truth."
Maggie smiled. "Ms. Torres, Selena's resignation is her own business. As an outsider, I shouldn't make too many comments."
Upon hearing this, Angela looked at Maggie with a hint of admiration. " Your rise to the chief designer clearly showcases your remarkable talent. Selena's scheming led not just to my expulsion from the company but also to my retreat from the industry. Nevertheless, I am greatly satisfied to know you've managed to oust Selena. She was never deserving of the designer's crown."
Maggie sincerely said, "Ms. Torres, I have read your information. You are a very admirable senior in the industry. Indeed, when I read your information, I felt very sorry. You are naturally suited for this job, and you shouldn't have retreated from the industry."
Angela, upon hearing this high praise, couldn't help but sigh, "Jewelry design has always been my passion. After being pushed out of the company by Selena, I left the industry for some personal reasons."
"Ms. Torres, I'm not sure if you've considered returning to work. Let me be transparent with you. Despite only having a high school diploma, I've been promoted to the role of chief designer. This has caused some discontent among the other designers, and it's challenging to manage everything by myself. I hope you'll consider coming back to AL Jewelry and reignite your dream."
"Do you want me to help you?" Angela asked in surprise, "How did someone with a high school diploma like you get promoted by Jones?"
Maggie smiled. "Maybe I was just lucky."
